Broadband providers are piping faster and faster internet into our homes, but the routers of yesteryear aren’t always able to take full advantage. Today we’ve spotted a capable dual-band router on sale with 55% off, knocking the price down to a cool $50. For the gamers among you planning to use this for lower latency, we’d also like to direct your attention to a similar savings on the highly programmable G700s gaming laser mouse.

The Tp-Link router allows for simultaneous connectivity on the 300Mbps 2.4GHz signal and the 450Mbps 5GHz signal, giving you a total of up to 750Mbps in total bandwidth at any moment. Of course, just like with the advertised speed of your ISP, these are theoretical total speeds based on an ideal situation, and a key contributor to lower than expected performance is interference from crowding. One of the best benefits of a dual-band setup is that you can use the more crowded 2.4GHz band for your everyday tasks, and simultaneously devote the 5GHz band exclusively to bandwidth-intensive operations like gaming or streaming movies.

Many older or cheap routers also come with 100Mbps physical Ethernet ports, but this model features full gigabit (1000Mbps) corded connections. There are also a pair of USB ports for sharing printers and data, management tools, parental controls and more.

The G700s gaming mouse packs 13 programmable buttons for pumping out macros, an ultrafast 1ms report rate whether it’s wired or wireless, and accurate laser technology. It’s rechargeable, seamlessly switching from corded to charge and back to wireless. The sensitivity can also be adjusted between 200 DPI and 8200 DPI, with numerous custom settings being saved to various profiles. If you’re looking for a mouse that can vastly expand your precision and control in the moment, the G700s definitely fits the bill.
